It doesn't come with spool, so I had to get that separately. I plugged it into a 20A outlet, and no issues. It welds 1/4inch steel plates without any problems. The flux core wire does tend to splatter a bit more than normal stuff, but it cleans up fine with a wire brush. I'm happy with it.
Fairly low duty cycle, but that is fine. Am only going to give it light usage.

The first one would not power up...It was replaced free of charge no questions asked..the replacement has no problems at all.....I made some good looking welds on 1/4 in plate and some bolts welded to the plate. I do like this welder and the price was nice too. even though i have welded quite a bit in the past I did have to practice for a while to get the settings the way I wanted them. I don't plan to do any heavy duty work with it....Mainly just 1/4 inch or less...I think it might be good for beginners...

Works well and love the ability to control heat. It has a lot of different tips that come with the solder iron. When replacing Surface Mount Devices (SMD), it is good to use the hot air gun and use of the air speed so as not to blow the SMD device off the board trying to solder. I added a holder for the solder spools (from a bathroom toilet tissue holder) and used a magnet to hold the base to the top of the station. Well worth the money, especially when working on SMDs.
